My name is Laura, and I’m fundraising to help our beloved family cat (My dad's cat) Tink get urgent tail amputation surgery.
Tink is 15 years old and has been with us nearly all her life Dad adopted her after a previous friend shared her on fb as a kitten in a shelter and had no home or family to care for her— she’s truly my dad’s cat. She’s his constant companion, especially now as he begins treatment for lung cancer.
Tink recently injured her tail, and unfortunately, it has now died. It’s completely lifeless and starting to rot, putting her at risk of infection, flystrike, and severe health complications. She’s currently on antibiotics (starting 21st July), but she must have her tail removed soon to prevent further suffering.
The vet has quoted a rough estimate of £1,331.90 for the surgery, which we just can’t afford. My dad has just started chemotherapy and immunotherapy, and he’s unable to work due to this.
We’ve tried looking into applying for help from animal charities, but we don’t qualify because my dad isn’t on benefits, and Tink is uninsured due to her age.
This isn’t just a vet bill — this is about holding onto something that brings my dad, and my family just that little bit of comfort and emotional support during the hardest time in his life.
To try and raise the funds, I’m also offering my artwork in exchange for donations. You can:
Buy a print, a custom Pokémon card, a pet portrait, A custom human portrait, canvas paintings, stickers, A4 amd A5 art prints or one of my original colouring books — and all proceeds go straight to Tink’s operation.
➡️ You can view artwork and order at: [thedigitaldeadbylaura.bigcartel.com] or message me on Instagram: [@TheDigitalDeadByLaura]
Or, if you’d rather just donate — every single pound helps us get closer to her surgery. And if you leave a comment with your donation (e.g. “A5 print”), I’ll get in touch and send your thank-you piece!
Thank you so much for reading. Even just sharing this page helps more than you know.
Laura, Tink, Glen (My Dad) and the rest of the Smith family.
